Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 20, 2020 Journalists Share Posted October 20, 2020 Congratulations to Helen Otero, one of three finalists in the Dedication to Breeding Award category of the Thoroughbred Industry Employee Awards (TIEA), presented by Godolphin. The Ireland native started with Coolmore in 1993 working in the barns and became a veterinary nurse before moving to the office. She has truly shined in the role of stallion administrator in one of the busiest breeding sheds in America. “When the breeding season starts,” said Coolmore America’s manager, Dermot Ryan, “we basically hand the keys and the driver’s seat to Helen and she runs the whole thing.” Click for the video feature on Otero done by TIEA. Other finalists for the Dedication to Breeding Award are Steve Avery of Taylor Made Farm and David Kyle of Fasig-Tipton. The Dedication to Breeding Award is presented annually to an individual who has been in the Thoroughbred breeding industry for at least 10 years and is a pivotal part of his or her employer’s success. A total of seven award categories will be honored by TIEA for 2020. Maria Cristina Silva of New York Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association (NYTHA) has already been announced as the winner of the Community Award, while the winners in the other categories will be announced live in a virtual ceremony hosted by Jill Bryne and streamed at the TDN homepage Thursday, Nov. 5, at 12:00 p.m. ET. All finalists will be spotlighted in TDN in the days leading up to the ceremony.
